Abstract:Petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) can be biodegraded into CO2, and PHC‐contaminated aquifers are always deemed as carbon sources. Fortunately, some carbon fixation microorganisms have been found in PHC‐contaminated sites. However, most of the studies are related to volatile short‐chain PHC, and few studies focus on long‐chain PHC‐contaminated sites. To reveal the carbon fixation microorganisms in these sites, in the study, a long‐chain PHC polluted site in North China was selected. Through hydrochemical and metage… Show more
